Patch contributed by Bruno Santos: - "etc/config.sh/CGAL": - Indented the contents of the recently added if block. - Added comment about using system versions. - Library paths are now only added if the respective version is not "boost-system" and "cgal-system". - "src/renumber/Allwmake": It now relies on the previous file to get the version for Boost (the same way as in "makeCGAL"). This is so that it will also build "SloanRenumber" if "boost_version" is set to "boost-system". - "applications/utilities/mesh/generation/Allwmake": It now also relies on the script "config.sh/CGAL" to get the version for CGAL. If "cgal_version" is set to "cgal-system", it will now also build "foamy*Mesh" utilities and respective libraries. Resolves report http://www.openfoam.org/mantisbt/view.php?id=1232
